Not Me! Monday - June 1



Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over her blog at www.mycharmingkids.net to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

Okay, so I've been following MckMama's "Not Me Mondays" since her son Stellan has been much improved with SVT (see link to her blog above). It's a fun way to share things that I would NEVER do - not me. Here goes:
1. As a loving wife pregnant with twins, I would never pile all of the dirty dishes in the sink knowing that my husband would relent and take care of them. Nope, not me - I would never take advantage of my husband's good nature.
2. When Gabriel wanted chocolate milk last week while Wes was in St. Louis, I did not tell him that Daddy took the chocolate milk on his work trip and we would be drinking regular milk. I would never tell a toddler something like that to avoid hearing "Why Not?" repeatedly.
3. I did not throw away a pair of Gabriel's new big boy underwear the other week (he had a poopie accident in them) because I was too tired to clean them out. That would have been a complete waste of a pair of underwear/$.
4. I did not try to convince my son to eat at McDonald's last week when Wes was out of town so that I didn't have to cook and clean up. And, when he asked for carrots and broccoli instead, I did not wonder in my head how he could possibly be my child. Nope, because I ALWAYS prefer my vegetables over junk food.

Well, I think that's it for my first Not Me Monday. You should try it - it's fun to share things that you would never do!

Very funny! I can't believe he wanted carrots and broccoli!!!! Man, what I'd give if Bryce ate ANYTHING besides the 5 things on his menu. We're about to start therapy again to see if we can get him chewing/eating more things.
